ABSTM_02 When printed, the submitted absorption T values will be replaced by the scaled T values. Since the ratio of scaled T's is identical to the ratio of reported T values, the scaling does not imply a change to the absorption corrections used in the study. Ratio of Tmax expected/reported 0.949 Tmax scaled 0.880 Tmin scaled 0.790
Previously prepared [Co(sac)2(H2O)4]·2H2O (1.0 mmol, 0.53 g) was dissolved in methanol (30 ml) at 303 K with stirring. Pyet (0.25 g, 2.0 mmol) was then added to the solution dropwise. The resulting solution was left to stand at room temperature and allowed to evaporate slowly for crystallization. Yellow single crystals, obtained within a week, were collected by suction filtration, washed with acetone and dried in air.
The H atoms of the hydroxyl group and water molecules were refined freely, while H atoms bonded to carbon were included using a riding model, starting from calculated positions.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Saccharin, chemically known o-sulfobenzimide, is the most widely used artificial sweetener. Its deprotonated form, the saccharinate anion (C7H4NO3S)− (sac), readily coordinates to metal ions, forming stable metal complexes in the solid state. This study is a continuation of our research on the synthesis and structural characterization of complexes of metal saccharinates with other ligands containing hydroxymethyl and hydroxyethyl groups, such as monoethanolamine (Andac et al., 2000, Yilmaz, Andac et al., 2001; Yilmaz, Topcu et al., 2001), monoethanolethylenediamine (Yilmaz et al., 2002), diethanolamine (Yilmaz, Topcu et al., 2001), triethanolamine (Topcu et al., 2001), dimethanolpyridine (Andac et al., 2002) and 2-pyridylethanol (Hamamci et al., 2002a). In this paper, we report the crystal structure of 2-pyridylethanol (pyet) complex of cobalt(II) saccharinate, viz. [Co(H2O)2(pyet)2](sac)2, (I).
The structure of (I) is shown in Fig. 1, and consists of a complex cation, [Co(H2O)2(pyet)2]2+, and two sac anions. In the complex cation, the CoII ion lies on an inversion centre and is octahedrally coordinated by a pair of neutral pyet ligands and two water molecules, forming a CoN2O4 core. The sac ions are not in the primary coordination sphere, being as a counter-ion. Each pyet ligand behaves as a bidentate ligand through the N and hydroxyl O atoms, forming a six-membered chelate ring around the CoII ions. The two pyet ligands form the equatorial plane of the coordination octahedron, while two water molecules occupy the axial positions with a trans configuration. Some distortion of the metal coordination sphere from regular octahedral geometry is apparent, especially at the Owater—Co—Npyet angles (Table 1).
Both sac (C11–C16/C21/O21/N1/S1) and pyet (C31–C36/N2) are essentially planar, with an r.m.s. deviation of ca 0.01 and 0.04 Å, respectively, but the OH group deviates significantly from the pyet plane by ca 1.00 Å. Furthermore, the Co2+ ion is coplanar with the pyet plane. The crystal packing of the title compound is shown in Fig. 2. The crystal packing exhibits parallel stacking of pairs of the sac ions and therefore, results in weak π–π interactions (Cg···Cg > 4.0 Å). The H atoms of the water molecules (O4) and hydroxyl group (O3) of pyet form O—H···O hydrogen bonds with the sulfonyl O (O1) and carbonyl (O21) O atom of neighbouring sac anions. Additionally, two weak C—H···O interactions between H atoms of the pyridine ring and the carbonyl and sulfonyl O atoms of the adjacent sac ions occur. The hydrogen bonds and weak π-π interactions stabilize the crystal structure, forming a three-dimensional network.
The title compound is isostructural with the corresponding cobalt(II) complex (Hamamci et al., 2002b).
